Global immigration services firm Fragomen, Del Rey, Bernsen & Loewy (Fragomen) in October 2019 released the 2019 edition of its Worldwide Immigration Trends Report.
Among the key takeaways of the report that covers Africa, Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and North America:
- Migration has fueled a resurgence of nationalist political movements and anti-immigration policies.
- Many countries will continue to struggle to develop the technology necessary to support new, tougher immigration procedures.
- Though the global protectionism trend will continue, an increasing number of countries could become attractive alternatives for skilled migrants, as governments and the private sector continue to be interested in the skills and innovation foreign talent bring.
Furthermore, the report discusses several emerging issues, including
- The growing importance of the private sector in policymaking, as the international community works to implement standards while coping with imminent labor shortages, and
- Governments shifting the burden of immigration employment authorization to employers.
